Patient's question:
About a week ago, I developed a Bartholin's gland cyst. When I went to the hospital for treatment, the doctor told me to take Daivagene. After taking it for three days with no effect and experiencing severe pain, I was preparing to go back to the hospital. However, on the way to the hospital, it ruptured, releasing a mixture of blood and pus. When the doctor examined it, they just wiped it with disinfectant and told me to go home and take medication for treatment, along with using Huangbai liquid for sitz baths. Now, the swelling hasn't completely subsided yet. It ruptured on its own, and I'm worried about whether it will recur frequently in the future. What should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
If it is a Bartholin's gland cyst, oral and topical Chinese medicine can be used before it becomes purulent. Recommendation: If it has already purulent, a Bartholin's gland abscess fistulostomy can be performed. Postoperative care includes maintaining external genital hygiene, avoiding spicy foods, and wearing loose clothing.
